About This SeafoodDish

Fresh Pacific oysters topped with a Japanese-style dressing of soy sauce, seasoned rice vinegar and fresh ginger, finished with pickled ginger, cucumber and roe.

Ingredients

  1. 12 fresh Pacific oysters, shucked
  2. 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  3. 1 tablespoon seasoned rice vinegar
  4. 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, finely grated
  5. Pickled ginger, finely sliced, for topping
  6. Crushed ice or rock salt, for serving
  7. Cucumber, julienned, for topping
  8. Flying fish roe or salmon roe, for topping

Method

  1. In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, seasoned rice vinegar, and finely grated ginger. Refrigerate until ready to use.

Chef's Tip

Japanese-style oyster dressings work beautifully because they enhance the oyster’s natural sweetness and ocean flavour without overpowering it. Soy sauce adds savoury depth, rice vinegar brings gentle acidity, and fresh ginger adds brightness and warmth that cuts through the richness of the oyster. Serving the oysters ice cold with light toppings keeps the dish clean, elegant, and perfectly balanced.
